[How to deal with Photoshop error] There is no selected layer

wp_tmb_photoshop-no layers are selected

On November 5, 2020, I was troubled by the following error.

Fill tool error

・I tried to fill in the background with the fill tool, but the message “The fill tool is not available. You cannot edit the pixels within the group without merging the groups.”

I tried all the tools to see if the same error occurred with other tools, and found that there are tools other than the fill tool that cannot be used.

However, even if I get an error like this, I want to use the fill tool, so I tried various things.

the result

Once the layer is selected, the tools are now available.​
